My second time around I replaced the Simcoe @5m with Centennial, upped the flameout addition, & shot for an OG of 1.052 to make it more sessionable. I'll report back as to how that turns out.

This beer got an Honorable Mention (losing out to 2 of my other saisons) in the 10/20 SNAFU competition and scored a 32 & 35.

2nd batch is still in the bucket. I dry hopped it with 2oz Nelson Sauvin & 3oz Galaxy this evening. I have an Oktoberfest on the WLP670 Am Farm strain too that should get bottled up soon.

The Brett in the strain is interesting. From tasting the first Hay Gurl I'm thinking it's not your standard Brett B. It's gotten a little chewier & meatier than what I associate with Brett B. Possibly Brett C.

I just kegged up Hay Gurl II. It smells great but I didn't sample it. The dry hop was 2oz Nelson & 3oz Galaxy. FG was 1.009.
